With nothing but power attached, the only thing RESET will do is to toggle the READY indicator. Hitting reset will cause it to flash, pressing it again will stop the flashing. I’m not sure, but it may not even function to that extent with nothing hooked up to it.

The reset is okay now I can again home the machine and zero as well .  
I am going to try again to load the file and wandering if I could call you for advice or you could call me @(310)430-1364

I just use 2D CAD software (Draftsight) for design and Estlcam to generate the g-code.
